Since you are manually creating each custom range, you can simply pass your legend label as the 4th argument to the `QgsRendererRange` class constructor in whatever form you like. For example: myRange1 = QgsRendererRange(0.00, 3.00, mySymbol1, '0.00-3.00') ... myRange2 = QgsRendererRange(3.10, 6.00, mySymbol2, '3.10-6.00') etc. In practice the appropriate precision, both for setting and interpreting each range, would probably depend on factors like the actual precision of the numeric attribute field you are using, the size of each value range etc. Since that argument is just a string which will be used to label each range in the table of contents panel/ legend you can also include units to provide context e.g. `'0-3 patients'` or use very simple labels to broadly interpret each value range such as `'Low'`, `'Medium'`, `'High'` etc. By the way, you may find you also need to call: `join_layer.triggerRepaint()` after setting the renderer to apply the new layer symbology in the map canvas. If you want to use `QgsRendererRangeLabelFormat`, you need to call `updateRangeLabels()` after setting the label format e.g. <!-- language-all: pyqgis --> lyr_name = 'ibra7_regions' vlayer = QgsProject.instance().mapLayersByName(lyr_name)[0] target_field = 'SQ_KM' def apply_graduated_symbology(lyr, fld): range_list = [] color_1 = QColor('#FFD700') color_2 = QColor('#FF4500') color_3 = QColor('#DC143C') symbol_1 = QgsSymbol.defaultSymbol(lyr.geometryType()) symbol_1.setColor(color_1) range_1 = QgsRendererRange(1.00, 150000.00, symbol_1, '1-150000') range_list.append(range_1) symbol_2 = QgsSymbol.defaultSymbol(lyr.geometryType()) symbol_2.setColor(color_2) range_2 = QgsRendererRange(150000.00, 300000.00, symbol_2, '150000-300000') range_list.append(range_2) symbol_3 = QgsSymbol.defaultSymbol(lyr.geometryType()) symbol_3.setColor(color_3) range_3 = QgsRendererRange(300000.00, 450000.00, symbol_3, '300000-450000') range_list.append(range_3) renderer = QgsGraduatedSymbolRenderer(fld, range_list) renderer.setMode(QgsGraduatedSymbolRenderer.Custom) # Set label format and update range labels lbl_format = QgsRendererRangeLabelFormat() lbl_format.setFormat("%1 - %2") lbl_format.setPrecision(2) lbl_format.setTrimTrailingZeroes(False) renderer.setLabelFormat(lbl_format) renderer.updateRangeLabels() lyr.setRenderer(renderer) lyr.triggerRepaint() apply_graduated_symbology(vlayer, target_field) To update the label precision of an existing graduated renderer: layer = iface.activeLayer() #print(layer.renderer().labelFormat().precision()) lbl_format = QgsRendererRangeLabelFormat() lbl_format.setFormat("%1 - %2") lbl_format.setPrecision(2) lbl_format.setTrimTrailingZeroes(False) renderer = layer.renderer().clone() renderer.setLabelFormat(lbl_format) renderer.updateRangeLabels() layer.setRenderer(renderer) layer.triggerRepaint() iface.layerTreeView().refreshLayerSymbology(layer.id()) Setting label precision programmatically is more commonly used when calculating classes automatically. **Note** that from QGIS 3.10 onwards, `QgsRendererRangeLabelFormat` is **deprecated**. Now we should set the label format and precision in the `QgsClassificationMethod` subclass e.g. [QgsClassificationEqualInterval()][1]. The snippet below creates a graduated renderer using the equal interval method, with 7 classes and a label precision of 1: layer = iface.activeLayer() default_style = QgsStyle().defaultStyle() # Use any existing color ramp e.g. # 'Greens', 'Purples', 'Cividis' etc # or create a custom color ramp # Here we are using the purple/blue/green ramp... color_ramp = default_style.colorRamp('PuBuGn') renderer = QgsGraduatedSymbolRenderer() renderer.setClassAttribute('SQ_KM') # using equal interval method... classification_method = QgsClassificationEqualInterval() classification_method.setLabelPrecision(1) classification_method.setLabelTrimTrailingZeroes(True) renderer.setClassificationMethod(classification_method) # creating 7 classes... renderer.updateClasses(layer, 7) renderer.updateColorRamp(color_ramp) layer.setRenderer(renderer) layer.triggerRepaint() # optionally expand the layer legend... lyr_tree_root = iface.layerTreeView().layerTreeModel().rootGroup() lyr_node = lyr_tree_root.findLayer(layer.id()) if not lyr_node.isExpanded(): lyr_node.setExpanded(True) And to update the label precision on an existing graduated renderer: layer = iface.activeLayer() renderer = layer.renderer().clone() class_method = renderer.classificationMethod() class_method.setLabelFormat("%1 - %2") class_method.setLabelPrecision(3) class_method.setLabelTrimTrailingZeroes(False) renderer.updateRangeLabels() layer.setRenderer(renderer) layer.triggerRepaint() iface.layerTreeView().refreshLayerSymbology(layer.id()) [1]: https://api.qgis.org/api/3.14/classQgsClassificationEqualInterval.html
